A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

Rod's run takes about a minute, if you've committed the nine rooms to memory. The stopwatch starts when Rod moves forward. There are some tight sequences and heroic leaps. Should Rod falter, he'll ride the Regeneration Transport to the room's entrance and feel like a whole new Rod. He can view his time and take it easy in the gift shop.

Xbox controller uses D-pad and A. Keyboard uses Arrows or A and D to move. Use Ctrl, Space, Up Arrow, or W to jump. Press Start or Esc to exit.

The theme song crossfades into different styles from level to level. The timbre is SID emulation through 32bit VSTs with chorusing.

The regeneration sound was made with the amazing ChipTone. Thank you, SFBGames. https://sfbgames.itch.io

Is it a puzzle game?

I think room 5 is perplexing, but the game is simply a platformer.
